ORIGINS – An immersive journey to the origins of life

Art and the latest technology in a fascinating combination

The immersive experience is made possible by state-of-the-art technologies and combines realistic visuals with impressive soundscapes and special effects to create a captivating 360-degree experience.

Multimedia techniques are used to create the visual experience, including analogue and macro photography, AI-based generative art and 3D design.
